Does Futureland's Pyramid of Needs match your own outlook?

In more detail:

Self-Actualization

  • Futureland is where I go to record all my ideas and progress
  • It encourages me to bravely explore things out of my comfort zone, because it makes new explorations feel like nbd
  • Checking in on Futureland isn't something I consciously think about, it just happens

Psychological

  • Encourage community and sharing (commenting, inviting, collaborating)
  • Encourage the pursuit of a lot of different interests, by encouraging the creation of many journals
  • Encourage frequent posting and reviewing of journals
  • Is more inviting for new users, users can self-onboard and self-teach
  • Easier to learn about who made this and why – lets me know that I can trust them

Basic Interaction

  • Currently Futureland's interface is more something you memorize than intuited, requiring a higher learning curve and more daily friction that it should. This is because the conceptual datamodel (many journals → each with many posts) doesn't match the visual hierarchy and placement of controls.
  • Actions are logically grouped
  • Clickable elements appear clickable
